Benign metastatic leiomyatosis is a very rare disease with less than 200 cases reported in the literature. It is a rare proliferative variant of smooth muscle fibers in places far from the uterus in patients with a history of hysterectomy, the lung being the most frequent site of these. These tumors are usually slow growing and have a favorable prognosis. Their clinical manifestations depend on the site they involve, the number and size of the tumors. Surgical treatment is usually curative.
